LITTLE BLIsSIE DIED TO-DAY.

In memory Of ARTHUR BLISS STEVENS, who de-
parted this life Nov. II, 1886, aged years.
The sunlight bathes the landscape fair,
And Natures face is smiling glad;
How can she so much beauty wear,
While my poor heart is dropping sad?
The sky should be of somblc gray,
For little Blissie died to-day.
hear the children in the street;
Their voices thrill my heart with pain,
For ne'er my lamb, with prattle sweet
Shall greet my listening ear again.
How strange to hear the children play,
When little Blissie has passed away,
Must l take up my daily yoke
And tread the weary path alone?
Alas bend beneath the stroke!
My blossom sweet forever gone!
LIES dearest joy has flown away,
For little Blissie died to-day. ~
cannot realize the blow
That bears me down with crushing weight,
My burning tears rebellious flow
Against the stern decree of fate;
Forever to myself | say,
For little Blissic has passed away.
Perchance at some far distant time,
When flowers bloom upon his breast,
And wounds are healed by love Divine
then shall know that all is best
But now | only feel and say,
For little BlIssic died to-day.
Perhaps when drcary years are gone,
meath the rod may mcckly bow,
And Father" say. "Thy will be done"
But oh cannot, cannot now:
My hearts so sad | scarce can pray,
For little Blissic has passed away.

Henry Wright on last Thursday
met with what might have been a
very serious accident to him, in fall
ing off load of hay and onto fork
that slipped off ahead of hlm while
he was driving through a pasture
gate, and bis load striking part
brushed portion of it away. This
caused him to slide off and onto the
fork, a tine of which caught him in
the abdomen and passed through in
such a manner as to make it appear
at first sight as though two tines of
the fork had penetrated the abdomen
four or Ave inches apart, when only
one tine caught him, passing in and
out four or five inches from point of
entrance. He was all alone at the
time, but near enough to the city SO
that he hailed friend who came to
his rescue but not until he himself
had pulled the fork from his body.
He was brought to the city and was
soon nnder the skillful treatment of

morning and will spend a month in

of that city were instructed by Pres

ton and protection, to see that they
were not injured in person or prop
erty, to make them acquainted as far
as possible with the sights of the city,

Attention is being directed to the
increased rainfall on the plans of
the West. This fact, if it be fact,
is of the greatest Importance to the
future of Western railroads as well
as Western farmers. Evidence on
the subject is quite conflicting; but
there seems to be reason for believ-
ing that there has been such an in
crease, and that 1t has not reached
its limit. There is no doubt at all
that farming has been carried on
successfully and protitably where
thirty years ago it would have been
considered physically impossible.
President Adams, of the Union Pa
cifiic, in recent letter to the New
York Evening Post, makes an ingen-
ious attempt to explain the fact. A
few years ago, he says, the land pre-
sented an unbroken surface, so that
whatever rain might fall would at
once run off to the river, with little
or no chance for evaporation. But
as the country becomes settled, and
the ground broken, the water is re-
tanned longer and evaporated more
freely. 1t is thus partly returned to
the clouds and serves as rain once
again. 1t is hard to judge how far
this explanation IS true. 1t has gem
orally been thought that the exis-
tence of forests was necessary for
producing an appreiable effect of
this kind. But whatever the cause,
the facts in the case are worth no.
ting. It may be that our government,
after disposing oe the public land
which was thought to be available,
and awakening too late to sense of
what it has done. will find that there
is to be some more land given it af-
ter all. If this proves to be really
the case, we shall be forced to con-
clude that the special Providence
which additionally watches over
school-boys and sdrunkards has been
extending its attention to Congress.

Miss Mary Kovar, = local rsigning

Amongst them also was Charles Vanek,

spirit OF fun suggested mock MARI

The DEPARTURE OF Charles Blake
from the New Castle jail yesterday Is
worthy . word OF comment. Twice did
he escape, bat each time he was re-
captured and brought back, the last
time with Q bullet In his ankle from
the pistol OF Officer Marques, who ran
him down near Oxford, Pa. Since then
Blake has acted % Q changed man. He
gave up all hope Of escape, and In the
solitude Of his cell he seems to have
resolved to lead new life. His sign
ing OF the temperance pledge under the
influence Of the W. @. 7. U. could not
have been for mere effect, - his term
of imprisonment had almost expired,
and he looked for no favors from the
executive department Of the State. To
help Blake In his efforts to reform Is
faithful wife who, unheeding the jeers
and taunts OF an unfeeliDg world, has
stood by him and encouraged him with

rho Gettysburg monuments.


Tho tysburg Battlefield Assooi-
alton having declined to permit the
Pickett Division Association OF ex-
Confede ates to erect . monument on
the battlefield where the division de-
sires to place 1t, the association has be-
come the target of much adverse criti-
cism, even Union ex-soldiers Joining In
tho condemnation. This 10 done with
ont understanding the true facts OF the
case, The Battlefield Association has
promptly and properly recognized the
rights OF Confederate % we'll as the
rights Of Union representation, but 1t
has also, and very properly prescribed
certain regulations which shall be OBJ
served by both sides In the erection OF
monuments. Without these all would
he disorder and confusion. In the con-
fllct the lines OF the combatants were
clearly defined, and along these lines
the association has direeted that the
memorials shall be erected. I. is only
reu uired that Confederate As well ss
Union monuments shall be erected
within the respective lines. This seems
10 eminently proper and just that 1t
seems strange 1t should meet with oppo-
sition. Bat this rule does not suit the
men who we're charged with the Pickett
memorial. They were not willing to
erect 1t where that division was sta
toned and from whence they started
on their fatal charge, but claimed the
right to place 1t at the farthest point
rea obed BY them In their course, which
was far away from their own lines.
Angered OF being denied this privileges
they have expressed themselves hotly,
and will now erect their monument
mewhere In tho South. The deter
mination OF the x-Confederates not to
erect their monument on the battle
field is the more to be regretted thai
the association conceded that they
might erect . small tablet at the far
fhest point reached directing attention
TO the larger monument.
The Battlefield Association also OBJ
ieoted to the inscription 1t was prop osed
70 place on the monument, declaring
that "They died for their country
This the association holds to be moor
rect. Is they did not die for their coun
try, but In rebellion against 1t. Any
thing extolling the bravery Of the dest
ConfederAtes will be permitted, bu
nothing that even indirectly would re
fisot on the actions and memory OF thu
patriots who there fought and died will
be allo wed. Even ex-Confederate
themselves should see the justice OF sucl
. course, and we hope that Picketts
men will reconsider their action, an(
place their monument upon the field II
accordance with the rules Of the 1850
citation. Nothing could more fully Sc
forth and show the perfect unity an
harmony OF the two sections OF GU
country only q few years ago arrayed Il
deadly confiic. than the int erninglin
OF monuments upon this great battle
field of the war under prescribed regr
lat,ons. It Is too late to stop and IL
uuire whether God smiled more upo
the "Blus" than he did upon tn
"Gray."
1t is o matter for local comment ths
the Delaware Regiments were In tn
thickest OF the hght with Pickett's d
vision, and after having stood like a
iron wall against the rebel charge, i
the counter charge that followed, the
captured more prisoners than they ha
